Awesome product
I bought the Desky single sit stand desk, the ergonomic chair and the integrated cable & power channel, it’s been 3 weeks and so far it’s being well worth the money , I work fully remote from home so I needed an extremely comfortable set up.The desk is amazing and the programmable function is very useful to me.The chair is very comfortable and gives my back the support it needs. The integrated cable and power channel conceals the wiring mess and makes it look very presentable. Overall I’m satisfied with the products , bear in mind I have only had it for 3 weeks , so time will tell if I still feel the same.... Show more

Desky Dual Mini
The desk over all is awesome once assembled. The only issue I had was with the assembly. The product came with a French manual instead of English. I did use the online video tutorial to assemble the desk. However, I needed the manual to program the height limits. Desky was able to email me a PDF copy upon request.The screws that came with the desk weren't long enough to attach the electronic module to the desk. Desky rectified this by crediting me $20 which was fair since the screws were only a few bucks at home depot. Not ideal for the inconvenience and my time for me personally but hopefully my situation was just a one off.A few issues with assembly but overall the customer service was great and responsive. And I love the desk. This was also the only company ... MoreThe desk over all is awesome once assembled. The only issue I had was with the assembly.

Love My New Desk!
I ordered a desky when my hamstring started bothering me when sitting for long periods of time. The shipping was flawless, assembly instructions were clear, the desk is very solidly built, raising/lowering it is quick and smooth. I also really like the power bar and cable management. I can run 2 laptops, the monitor and a variety of USB powered gadgets with only one cable going to the AC. I've noticed a big reduction in hamstring soreness after a full day of work so well worth the price!I've attached a couple of pics, pardon the mess, some of us are perpetually clutter challenged!...

Major Ergonomic Improvement!
Putting the desk together was difficult for a layperson but not prohibitively so: I had to re-drill a couple of the holes to mount the desk but this was easily done and caused no damage to the desk top.The desk, once built, has been a major improvement to my quality of life. I am working from home during COVID (and lucky enough to be able to do so: all workers should be paid to stay home until we reach Covid Zero regardless of their capacity to work, and significant additional funding should be committed to our healthcare system to ensure we do not have a repeat of the last 18 months) and prior to purchasing the desk from Desky, was feeling cramped and working from a small table.Now, having the desk, I can sit when I need to, stand when I need to, and my body ...

I have more energy and focus, and my productivity at work has improved since buying and installing the desk.This further demonstrates the need for all workplaces to provide adequate ergonomic equipment for their employees free of charge to the worker: it is good for the workers and good for business! Workplaces should be democratically owned and managed by the workers themselves, and profit share should be equitably distributed. Workplaces should provide a safe and ergonomic workplace for all staff, and these desks are one more reason why a full workers' democracy is not only desirable, but necessary if we are to build a better world together!I am fully satisfied with my purchase and would recommend (and have recommended) Desky to friends and colleagues; 5 stars!...

My Desky Experience
Delivery Time = Excellent. I was originally told it would take about 10 days to arrive and it ended up being delivered within a few days. No damage to any parts and everything was in the box. Installation = Pretty straightforward and relatively easy. The video guide was very useful. The only issue with the video is they don't clarify which size screws to use. The other issue I had with building the desk was the lifting rod did not fit easily into both sides as easily as they showed it in the video. I needed to use a wrench to turn one of the input points so the rod would fit in both. Apart from that, everything went together VERY easily and I could build it all on my own. Quality = so far it's excellent. Good finish and looks like a quality-focused manufacturing ... MoreDelivery Time = Excellent.

The only issue I have is the desk doesn't go as low as my 'Officeworks' branded one that I have at work - which is ideal for sitting for long periods at my desk. This one is about 10 cms too high. Depth and width is perfect (180cm wide).... Show more

Rly well priced quality sit/stand desk
I think at the price-point this is one of the best few options, I was able to see the models in their showroom @Darra (Brisbane) and pick it up directly, so that was even better.I would suggest you get the one with the motor, it does add upfront cost.. but I suspect that having it easy to use and a consistent height would be too important for something you adjust several times per day.The wooden desktop surfaces looked the most resilient in the showroom, but we got the white one, I don't love the surface quality.. I do wish in the future they had that sore of more shiny reflective coating like you have in the kitchen or a more premium desk. But no complaints so far with damage.Took a little time to put together, and the instructions/video are sometimes out of ...

I might buy the full length channel in time.. but for now I just hung the powerboard vertically.. the aesthetics aren't important to this room.... Show more

Soild sit/standup desk - need some patience to assemble
[2 weeks usage review]The sit/standup desk is definitely solid and holds up to its strength. There are no issues when mounting heavy monitors. Usage-wise, I am defintiely happy for the purchase.Some minor issues:- Delivery was largely good - the only issue is that the webpage/app says its coming on Friday while the heavy packages already arrived on Thursday. Didn't have anyone at apartment building so I have no choice but to call the delivery workers to place outside the gate and lifting 20+ kg parcels through the gate and stairs ... would strongly recommend to check the app more often.- Assembling-wise, assembling the final wooden table top to the metal frame definitely is a challenge since you will have to (delicately) fine tune the wide of the frame ...

I would strongly encourage anyone assembling the metal frame (in the first part) to first approximately MATCH the drilling holes on the wooden table top, before installing the cable tray (or even the motor rod). Otherwise, there is a high chance you will have to remove all those extras in the later steps for matching the holes in the wooden table top.... Show more

Solid Desk. Easy to Build
The items arrived in two strong boxes (one for the desk top and one for the remaining components). The instructions for constructing the desk were easy to follow but as the instructions state you may need two lift some of the heavier parts. The desk itself has a good quality feel to it and is very sturdy, even when raised to a good height.Two small things I have found. Firstly, the cable tray can just fit a multi-socket plug but it is a bit fiddly getting the plugs into it as its close to the underside of the desk. Secondly, when fitting rubber pads the manual directs you to attach them to the frame. I found it easier to attach then to the underside of the desk as the round holes in the pads match the holes in the underside of the desk.Overall, I am very pleased ...
